在编写端到端 selenium 测试时，我应该导航到一个页面还是只打开 URL？

Question

Say I need to submit a form on the 'Classes' page. I am testing the 'enroll into class' feature. Do I navigate to the page by clicking on the menu bar, or do I just directly open the URL of the page?

Answer 1

It depends on the scenario you need to test.
As an autoimation engineer you need to work according to the documentation.
If no scenario defined you can choose easiest way to do that.

Answer 2

Incase clicking on the menu bar is the part of your @Test , you have to access the base page and navigate to the desired page by invoking click() on the menu bar.

Else you can directly open the URL of the page.
